I am so saddened to hear of your dear Mother’s passing. Where do I begin? She was my second mother when growing up. I stayed at your home as much as mine and Stella, although busy raising all of you girls, treated me with such kindness. I can still taste her yummy pink popcorn (love it!), and her delicious fudge! I recall having Kraft dinner for the first time (wasn’t so much a fan), the Kindness Club, her thoughtful poetry (I was so impressed your Mom was a published author), her wonderful Christmas gifts from the Regal catalogue (so cool), the stylish hand-me-downs, the trips to St.John (my first hotel stay), and of course all of the wonderful times our families spent together. My memories of Stella will last a life time, her love given so freely is etched on my heart always. Sending my love to all of you in your time of loss, hugs…. Maureen Cook (MOMBOURQUETTE) and family.
